Bride of the Demon Lord

Book 1 of the Brides of Darkness Series For hundreds of years, Calaren Town had been offering virgin maidens to fulfill their part on the treaty they made with the Court of Shadows to keep their small town under their protection. To be chosen meant death to the townsfolk, as there was no turning back to becoming a human again. Upon realizing that her younger sister was chosen as one of the maidens to be sacrificed by their impoverished town to the thirteen demon lords who once ruled their land, Iris Scarborough volunteered to take her place instead to save her. There was nothing exceptional about Iris, except for the secret she was keeping from everyone. However, even before she was taken away, Iris had already caught the eye of one of the demon lords. Rumors say that Lord Kieran Fleurnoir was the personification of death. His mere presence was enough to suck the life essence out of those around him. He was also known to be one of the strongest demons of all time, who possesses extremely dangerous and powerful magic. Taken to Asnar, a place filled with magical beings and monsters, Iris found herself enthralled and captivated not only by the place and its residents, but also by the cold and enigmatic demon lord, Lord Kieran. Once there, Iris realized that Asnar and Lord Kieran himself were different from what humans thought them to be. Loosely based on the tales of ‘Hades and Persephone’ and ‘Beauty and the Beast’.

Dear Little Brother (1)

Iris was on edge as she waited for the sun to set. She and Killian had completed the spell last night and Ren was scheduled to leave Aisgarth tonight with Aiden. She hadn't left her brother's side. Or rather she had refused to leave his side, except for that one time that Ricci convinced her to take a bath and get a change of clothes, because she was still wearing her dusty tunic and pants from their travels.

"Is there any news from Amelia and Chrys?" She asked Ricci as she stepped out of the bathing chamber, wearing a new set of clean clothes. The fae had taken the seat Iris occupied earlier and guarded Ren in her stead.

"No, Lady Iris, but I've already sent one to Amelia this morning. Of course, I didn't mention what transpired here last night with Killian Fleurnoir and I would rather them hear the news from you instead of me." Ricci responded, looking at Iris with worry in her eyes.
